Architecture

Six steps from stream
to evidence-backed decision.

Simple enough for owners. Deep enough for IT teams.

The six steps

Observe → Review

  1. STEP 01

    Observe

    Selected cameras provide approved streams via RTSP/ONVIF. Only zones and activities in scope are processed.

  2. STEP 02

    Process

    The edge device handles video locally so raw footage stays on-site whenever possible.

  3. STEP 03

    Structure

    Approved activity becomes events, snapshots and bounded clips — a searchable, structured record.

  4. STEP 04

    Contextualize

    Events are compared with business records and approved knowledge to add meaning.

  5. STEP 05

    Explain

    Jicho IQ produces summaries, findings and evidence — with clear source references.

  6. STEP 06

    Review

    Authorized users confirm, correct or escalate findings. Nothing sensitive is acted on automatically.
